Ferryhill questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you work in Ferryhill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ferryhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Repair or replace in Ferryhill?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
